Is that who I think it is???????

An observation I just thought of:

It seems we are all not completely sure we are seeing other fello CDCs while we are on the water fishing. For one reason or another we don't want to scream out a "HELLO" not knowing for sure they are who might think they might be.

Would be cool to have some type of small flag (like you see on the back or flying somewhere on the boat) with the CDC logo on it? It would be one way to know for sure they are part of your "Crappie Pack" of friends.

I would fly one because Im proud of our group of friends and how we all come/came together

1x1 foot flag would eliminate that guess work and at the same time show others how we are all part of the same group / family ?

A small flag with our Florida CDC log would be "distinctive" and create some "curiosity" with other fishermen?

Just a thought.

I would pay for a couple of them and fly them proudly!

Slab had some red and some blue towels with the cdc on them. The logo was small, but the towel as a flag should work.

It is one thing to tell everyone on the big lakes, but let someone identify you on the river and you will have a bunch of unwanted company. No thanks, I can spot me peeps on the water just fine. I know the area of the river Andy fishes and stay clear unless he waives me in. I know where the Dutchmans Bend Demon fishes and steer clear of his holes as well. But let a few others on the river see you and know who you are and game over. Them good trees are hard to find. Couple more weeks of pullin and time to remove the driftmasters. River is droppin.

We're workin' on this with GPCM and Redge too. We see. Hang in there guys.

We'll create a special flag for you that says "nothing to see here, ain't no fish, keep it moving". lol

That may work

I'm not saying it has to be permanently installed. Something more along the lines that attaches and detaches as you see fit. River fishing / tight quarters / hidden spots.... take the small flag down I'm the first to understand, but running out to a open water lake where most are just hanging out trolling back and forth within sight of one another, or the initial launch of boats heading out to the lake as a group would be cool.

Not that I have any hidden spots, but I sure wouldn't mind trying to get folks attention for CDC while I'm out there enjoying the specific pursuit we all have come to love, and the best site in the world that promotes this pursuit. The bonus has always been the same. Meeting new folks, that in time become friends.

Cant get enough of that :)

A uniform color is is probably important... You won't be able to see a logo.... I would fly it in the lakes..... Maybe on a 40' whip....

I understand exactly what you are saying, have met some good guys and a few great ones through here. That is what the slabfests and slabtogethers promoted most. Get together and get to know each other, more so than the competition. I know when I post up directed at Andy or Jeff that I am going to Monroe or Harney or where ever, anyone on here is welcome to join and I will look for you if you post up your going, I just know the 2 of them the most and they fish weekends as well. Flying a flag advertising on the water to all the internet scouters, not so keen on. Join the site, its free, log in and join the conversation and meet us at the ramp.

I'll never forget meeting Shuarc at Griffin earlier this year. Introduced ourselves, had a good conversation and he even gave me one of his jigs. I have the sticker on my boat.

Shu is a great guy fer sure!

Sounds like a winner to me........Be proud to display.
